Nemith Motors sheds Lincoln franchise after 71 years

Nemith Motors, which had its origins in 1937 in Schenectady and has been in Latham since 1950, has sold its Lincoln franchise back to the Ford Motor Co. The dealer will continue to carry Nissan and Volvo at its site on Route 9 north of the Latham traffic circle.

The dealer earlier ended its Mercury franchise, which Ford Motor Co. is discontinuing, and is conducting a liquidation of its remaining used Lincoln and Mercury inventory.

At least two Lincoln dealers, Lazare in Colonie and Fuccillo in Schenectady, remain.

Even though the last Merc rolled off the assembly line just a few days ago, rest assured that there will never be a shortage of service, as any Ford dealer will also service them – because they are 99.9% identical to their Ford cousins anyways.
